“Part of our culture, a core value, we call it disciplined innovation. So, innovation that leads to execution is our goal. It's a lot of fun to be able to spitball together different ideas…But then to kind of boil that down and say ‘what makes a great business model? What also helps real people in the real world like us? What would we want to do? How would we want to drive it? What would we want to see for our families?” Sue Ozdemir on Electric Ladies Podcast Besides being cool and fun to drive, electric vehicles are examples of how to innovate. Six big automakers are transitioning their entire product line to EVs over the next few years, but our guest today, a former GE executive, says that big corporates can't innovate. Why? What's a better way? Listen to Sue Ozdemir of Exro Technologies – which makes key EV engine parts – explain why corporates struggle to innovate and how they do it so well, in this fascinating conversation with Electric Ladies podcast host Joan Michelson. You'll hear: How Exro's technologies make EVs run—and better. Why she says corporates can't innovate What “disciplined innovation” is and whether it stifles potentially magical ideas. How to recruit for innovation, as well as for technical skills. How to get hired in a new or young industry – at any age and stage. Plus, insightful career advice …. “Generally speaking, all females, you just have to be a little bit ahead of your game all the time. You have to know a little bit more, you have to be a little bit more prepared. You have to kind of let things slide a little bit more often…And, don't apologize for the room that we own. We worked hard to be here and we own the space…We deserve to be here. And don't apologize for that.” Sue Ozdemir on Electric Ladies podcast You'll also want to listen to: Mia Bevacqua, CarParts.com – on how electric vehicles work Maureen Kline, Pirelli Tires, Sustainability head – on sustainable, smart tires Neha Palmer, CEO/Cofounder of TeraWatt Infrastructure – on building charging for EV trucks, fleets Katie Sloan, Southern California Edison, eMobility – on how to increase EV adoption at scale Jackie Birdsall, Toyota, Senior Engineer, Hydrogen Fuel Cell Vehicles – on how fuel cell vehicles work Margaret Lewis, New Flyer electric buses Subscribe to our newsletter to receive our podcasts, blog, events and special coaching offers..

On December 21, Harvard University chemist Dr. Charles Lieber was convicted of making false statements and other tax offenses in connection with his participation in the Chinese Thousand Talents program. Lieber's case got a lot of attention, both because of his profile as a well known researcher at Harvard University, and because of the case's connection with the U.S. government's occasionally controversial three-year-old program called the China Initiative. The program was unveiled in 2018 by then-Attorney General Jeff Sessions, and has been used by the Justice Department to investigate and charge a variety of wrongdoings connected with the Chinese government, economic espionage, research security, and other issues.To talk through the Lieber case and the China Initiative generally, Jacob Schulz sat down with Emily Weinstein, a research analyst at Georgetown's Center for Security and Emerging Technology, and Margaret Lewis, a professor at Seton Hall Law School. Emily and Margaret have written extensively about the China Initiative and provide thoughts on the Lieber case, as well as what to make of the initiative as a whole.Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/lawfare.

“We asked the Forest Stewardship Council to go on the ground and do the whole certification process, just like they do for paper…Then they're following that rubber throughout the chain of custody all the way through to the factory here in Georgia….and we have just produced the first FSC certified tire.” Maureen Kline on Electric Ladies Podcast The transportation sector is transforming, from GM's announcement that they are eliminating gas engines by 2030, to Ford's announcement this week about going all EV, to the massive legislation moving through Congress now to rebuild our transportation infrastructure. All those vehicles still need tires, though, and rubber is still an environmental challenge. How to balance safety with environmental protection? Pirelli Tires thinks they have found a solution – and these new tires are “smart” as well as sustainable. How? Listen to Maureen Kline, head of sustainability for Pirelli Tires explain it to host Joan Michelson on Electric Ladies podcast. You'll hear: How Pirelli is using outside sources like the Forest Stewardship Council to help them make sustainable tires in a credible and responsible way. What “smart tires” are, how they work, and how they keep passengers safer than “normal” tires do. How Maureen got Pirelli to include an option in the company's 401K plan options to invest according to ESG criteria. Plus, insightful career advice …. “I think what's really important is to gain knowledge of sustainability and weave it into every career… Use all possible, learning opportunities, whether it's online courses, listening to your podcast, reading, and just get your overall sustainability education in order. And then you can really start diving into how to make what you do, more sustainability focused.” Maureen Kline on Electric Ladies podcast You'll also want to listen to: Jennifer Gerbi, Deputy Director and Acting Director, ARPA-E, Dept. of Energy Anne Kelly, Ceres, on the role of the business community in the clean energy transition Lisa Jacobson, Business Council for Sustainable Energy, on the impact of covid on energy and transitioning to a clean energy economy Margaret Lewis, New Flyer electric buses Subscribe to our newsletter to receive our podcasts, blog, events and special coaching offers..

This week on Sinica, Kaiser chats with Margaret (Maggie) Lewis, a professor of law at Seton Hall University, about her work on the U.S. Department of Justice’s “China Initiative.” Launched under former attorney general Jeff Sessions in November 2018, the China Initiative sought to bring criminal cases against perpetrators of industrial espionage benefiting China, but as Maggie argues, it has in fact resulted in discriminatory ethnic profiling and the criminalization of what she calls “China-ness.” Listen to the end to hear Kaiser’s impression of Cookie Monster as a death metal vocalist.8:24: Viewing China as an existential threat17:44: Where the framing and implementation of the China Initiative falls short28:11: Prosecuting “China-ness”37:38: The impact on American competitivenessRecommendations:Maggie: What Do You Do With an Idea?, What Do You Do With a Problem?, and What Do You Do With a Chance?, by Kobi Yamada; also, Beautiful Oops!, by Barney Saltzberg.

In August 2020, U.S. Secretary of Health and Human Services Secretary Alex M. Azar II visited Taiwan, the highest level American cabinet officer to do so since the establishment of diplomatic relations with the PRC. A month later Under Secretary of State Keith Krach followed, representing the U.S. government at former President Lee Teng-hui’s funeral. What do these high-level visits suggest about the Trump administration’s policies toward Taiwan and the PRC, and about cross-strait relations? The National Committee held a virtual program with Professors Margaret K. Lewis and Shelley Rigger on October 27.
The Department of Justice launched the China Initiative in November 2018 to counter national security threats emanating from the People’s Republic of China (PRC). In February 2020, the Federal Bureau of Investigation announced that it had launched about a thousand active investigations under the Initiative; the China Initiative is gaining momentum. In a forthcoming article, Seton Hall University Law Professor Margaret K. Lewis argues that using “China” as the glue connecting cases under the Initiative’s umbrella creates an overly inclusive conception of the threat, and attaches a criminal taint to entities that have an even tangential connection to China. A better path would be to discard the “China Initiative” framing, focus on cases’ individual characteristics, and broaden the Department of Justice’s interactions with non-governmental experts. On June 9, 2020, the National Committee hosted a virtual program with Margaret Lewis where she discussed her article.

And, by doing that, I found that a job or a position or a role that may not seem at the time like it’s enticing… actually…number 1, opened a lot of doors for me, and number 2, by doing those kinds of assignments that I otherwise might not have been comfortable with, I really learned a lot…There are a lot of really great things that can come from that and really properly you further in your career to where you want to go.” Margaret Lewis on Green Connections Radio You’ll also want to listen to: Karen Lightman, Executive Director of the Smart Cities Institute at Carnegie Mellon University, on how to improve the resilience of your community.

Last Saturday, voters in Taiwan went to the polls in an election widely seen as a referendum on President Tsai Ing-wen. Her party, the Democratic Progressive Party, suffered numerous electoral defeats in crucial local races. The opposition party, the Kuomintang, capitalized on voter frustration with a stagnant economy, rocky relations with the Mainland, and a conservative base that was energized by a referendum on the legalization of same-sex marriage. The National Committee convened a teleconference call on November 30 with Taiwan experts Jacques deLisle and Margaret Lewis to discuss the ramifications of the election results for Taiwan, cross-Strait ties, and U.S.-Taiwan relations. Professor deLisle called in from Taipei, and Professor Lewis has recently returned from a year in Taiwan. Jacques deLisle is the Stephen A.

In Episode 41, I had the privilege of interviewing Anastasia Congdon & Margaret Lewis, Founders of Kokosing Valley School in Gambier, Ohio (Knox County). Connect with the Outstanding Ohioans show on Facebook, Itunes, or Stitcher The Kokosing Valley School is based on the Sudbury School Model founded in 1968. It is a model based on freedom, self-paced learning, mixed peer ages, play, interest exploration, and democratic processes. It is in fact nothing short of a miracle that the modern methods of instruction have not yet entirely strangled the holy curiosity of inquiry; for this delicate little plant, aside from stimulation, stands mainly in need of freedom; without this it goes to wreck and ruin without fail. -Albert Einstein Here are some of the highlights from our conversation: Anastasia and Margaret's backgrounds prior to founding the school in 2015 How each person came across the Sudbury model The tipping point for taking action for their children, and why they felt the Sudbury model was the best fit The inspirational, massive action they took to create the school within 7 months are they impacted by the school establishment of the state how the beautiful property contributes to the experience of the students the what a day looks like for the school children the parental support needed to make it successful the benefits the children receive from the Sudbury model, including the value of mixed ages all together historical outcomes of students that have gone through this model their vision for the future and legacy they hope to leave behind Some resources to learn more about the Sudbury school model or mentioned in the interview: Research articles and videos Free At Last: The Sudbury Valley School book by Daniel Greenberg Starting A Sudbury School: A Summary of the Experiences of Fifteen Start Ups by Daniel Greenberg Free to Learn by Peter Gray Creative Schools: The Grassroots Revolution that is Transforming Education by Sir Ken Robinson To contact the school, you may do the following: website Facebook page Email at info@kokosingvalleyschool.org Phone at (740) 427-2037 Thank you for listening.
